ya there are a lot of moves, ive heard of some dirty ones, but never seen anything yet. They did fix a lot of stuff from 07, like the defence will hold the blue line and are much harder to deek around. The physics are better for the most part, but there is still some cases of really really unrealistic bounces. The one thats bugging me the most right now is if the puck hits the top half of the goalies pad it will occasionally bounce up and in. Funny thing is any pad made in the last 15 years has a piece on the outside thats inclined to prevent that very thing from happening.
Its a very different game from 07. It feels completely different because of their new skating engine. It rewards setting up in the offensive zone and working the puck around, instead of 07 which rewarded deeking out the d-man and then the goalie. They just need a patch that minimizes those instances of really really bad physics.
